On July 4. The King said unto me, That He did kindly Accept of what was done in Boston. And that His Subjects in New-England should have their Ancient Rights and Privileges Restored and Confirmed unto them. Yea, He told me, That if it were in his power to cause it to be done it should be done, and bade me rest assured of it.

The Charter-Bill is not finished, because some Additional Clauses respecting Corporations here in England caused a Debate; and the Parliament is for some weeks Adjourned.
Besides the Letter from the Kings Majesty, whereof we have notice as above; there is now arrived, an Order from His Majesty to the Government, bearing Date, July 30. 1689.
